My Story…
We Run for ALD because of our ALD warrior Nicholas whose vision is the reason behind Knockout ALD and our Run for ALD event. Nicholas had a successful bone marrow transplant (umbilical cord blood donor) at age 11 at the University of Minnesota to stop the progression of his cerebral ALD. He is now a thriving college student and competitive triathlete! Our goal is to do our part in raising awareness and research funds so that other ALD boys have the chance to also live their best lives. We are forever grateful to Dr. Lund and the team at the U of M for all they do for ALD boys and their families in their dedication to earlier identification and better treatment options. Thank you for helping raise awareness of ALD and continue funding to further ALD research at the U of M!
